Hey yall just bought an 89 iroc z nice body but the interior is pretty shot. im thinking about putting all 4th gen stuff into it, anyone here ever done it ?
Well just wanted to say hi. will put pics up later.
pics added i looked up the vin and it says its the 5.7 liter 240hp auto but i dunno im going to have to comfirm that when i get the engine # when it comes back from the mech shop.
Get some pics up and yeah do a search on 4th gen installs and you will find quite abit, Welcome to the site!
That seems to be a pretty common upgrade. Seats are bolt in, console from what I've read takes a little work, but not much. The dash and door panels Ive heard take just a little fab work and wiring skills.
I'm across the Narrows Bridge from you over in Bremerton and working on an 89 RS myself - upgraded the suspension a bit, changed a rear end and working on the brakes.
Welcome to the boards. You shouldn't have any trouble finding help/advice, even locally as there are several great 3rd gen owners close by.
nice looking car, I have done a few of the 4th gen swaps......

Depending on what you need for the interior I may be able to help or not, PM Me & let me know I am in Yelm so only a few mins from you.
new console for sure, drivers seat, carpet, not sure what else yet untill it gets back from the shop... Anyone know a cheap place to get a complete seal kit for all the windows?

If you looking for 4th gen console,seats & carpet then your best best is to check out Craigslist, or ebay. Most of the junk yards for 4th gen stuff are rare if you find anything worth while.
Or you can order them through like Hawksthirdgen or even Classic Industries, or year one. same goes for the Weatherstiping, Just make sure you get the kit you need. I think the t-top kit goes for about 229 which isnt bad. which is everything you need for doing the t-tops & the doors just need a trunk kit.

I dont know what I have in my garage, I do have 3rd gen parts but as I said I dont know what. best thing is to come over & take a look & if I have anything make me an offer.
Well got it back from the shop today...... engine is seized lol out with the new and in with the old 350 with vortec heads im takeing it down to portland in a couple days. good times.
i tried to call the guy and get 300 bux back becuase hes a mechanic knows what the heck was wrong with it when he sold it to me but told me different, i know there is no lemon law in WA so i just figured he would have a good heart ( but then again he sold me a lemon ) lol
